One more thing, in my 261 block there is an oil tube that needs to be connected. It appears to carry the oil from galleys inside the block and to that headbolt I mentioned in the prior post. It's easy to miss. It is located inside the pushrod chamber, the side plate needs to be removed for access. I'm not sure if a 235 has the same arrangment though, I thought my 235 block was the same way, but I am not certain.
